You might know us as “The Cake Pop Couple,” but did you know Thomas also works part time for SkyWest out at the airport?
Our schedules are always busy, but that job comes with a pretty incredible perk: we get to fly for free on SkyWest and United!
If you stopped by the shop last week, you probably noticed we were missing. We took a week off to celebrate our anniversary and let the universe decide where we would go! We flew to Denver, walked through the airport, and looked for a flight to somewhere we’d never been, with two open seats. That kicked off an incredible adventure that took us coast to coast!
We’ve shared a few pictures here, including the estimated amount this trip would have cost in airfare but if you’d like to see the full journey, check out Thomas’s personal page.
As much fun as we had, this post is really about the people who made it possible. Kadi, Ryker, and Jadyn held down the fort all week, including through Halloween, while we were away. They kept the shop running and our customers taken care of, giving us the chance to step away and enjoy this adventure together.
Every small business owner knows how much it means to have employees you can count on. We are so grateful for ours.
Thank you, Kadi, Ryker, and Jadyn! We appreciate you more than you know!
